The HPV genotype test is a useful test to evaluate your risk of being infected by the HPV virus and the genotype of the virus. Those who are infected with the higher risk genotype like HPV 16 and 18 are at a higher risk of cervical cancer and have to be screened more regularly with PAP smear. The HPV genotype test can be performed on both females and males as HPV can cause cervical warts and cancer in females and genital warts and genital cancer in males.

Neo-Health offers the HPV genotype testing and with our continuous innovation in lab technology, we are now able to increase the spectrum of genotype being tested from 21 to 37 genotypes. This will offer the patients a wider coverage of detection and greater protection.
